“It won’t be easy being with him.”
You paused from drinking your tea before raising your eyes to the Queen.
You were having tea with Malleus’ Grandma, Queen Maleficia.
The Queen looked at you with a solemn stare.
You knew what she was referring to.
Humans and Fae, eventually one will live without the other. The end result would always be pain…
…but you believe otherwise.
You straightened your posture and stared the Queen on.
“It won’t be easy but there will always be love. I would rather live till the end of my days by his side then run away from the fear of pain.”
You closed your eyes and smiled as you recalled your fiancée’s face from that morning.
“Besides, I believe no matter how many lifetimes I live, I will always find and love him.”
The Queen stared you, the echoes of her daughter and son-in-law could be seen in your and her grandson's form.
The Queen recalled the determined stare and words her grandson had stated when she had told him the same.
Queen Maleficia smiled, the love that had been missing for so long in the castle, in Briar Valley, has finally returned.
“In you two, I can believe true love exists again.”
